Question

I\'m trying to download multiple files using IntentService. The IntentService donwloads them okey as expected one at a time, the only problem is that when the Internet is down t

UPDATE: I eventually implemented my own Intent Service using a thread that has a looper which checks the queue which in turn stores the intents passed from the startService(intent).

public class MyIntentService extends Service {

private BlockingQueue<Download> queue = new LinkedBlockingQueue<Download>();


public MyIntentService(){
    super();
}



@Override
public void onCreate() {

    super.onCreate();

    new Thread(queueController).start();

    Log.e("onCreate","onCreate is running again");


}



boolean killed = false;
Runnable queueController = new Runnable() {
    public void run() {
      while (true) {
        try {
          Download d =queue.take();

          if (killed) {
             break;
          }
          else {
            d.downloadFile();
            Log.e("QueueInfo","queue size: " + queue.size());
          }
        }
        catch (InterruptedException e) {
          break;
        }

      }
      Log.e("queueController", "queueController has finished processing");
      Log.e("QueueInfo","queue size: " + queue.toString());
    }
  };

  class Download {
        String name;
        //Download files process
        void downloadFile() { 
               //Download code here
         }

            Log.e("Download","Download being processed is: " + name);
        }
        public void setName(String n){
            name = n;
        }
